I wanted to let U.S. Sens. Mary Landrieu and David Vitter and U.S. Rep. Charlie Melancon know that I and all my associates are totally opposed to any health-care bill or measure in any fashion at this time.

This measure is ill-conceived, not financed properly, will deplete other programs, serves too few, and is financially destructive to our nation.

Please vote no when the time comes to be counted.

Stand with your state. Stand with the people who placed you in office. Stand with your friends.

I also find it abysmal that the White House threatens retribution against any party member who decides to change his previous vote to a no vote.

This tells all that our Democratic Party is in total disarray, and the leadership needs to be removed.

There is little doubt that the leadership currently holding office, including the president, will not be in office after the next election.
